What's the Nording like ? I am seeing them at clearout prices, but I can't find many reviews. Are they made by Rocky ? What are they comparable to ?

Medium strength, spicy, good wrapper from Costa Rica, a coffee/caramel tinge, esp. in the latter stages. Beautiful aroma. Like a mellow version of the Oliva Serie V.
Well-made, I smoke 2 or 3 a week, and have never had a bummer draw.
Nordings are made by Rocky Patel in Honduras. They changed the packaging. The new box is not as stout, and the logo has been altered. The original logo and packaging were boring. That's why you see the toros on closeout at Holt's for a bargain price of $69.95 for 25.

You mean these?

These are currently my favorite, most consistent NC smokes also. I always look for them on CBid when I run low.
